Chapter 41 Meng Ge's Real Name
Chapter 41 Meng Ge's Real Name
Because of Xiao Lu's antics, the atmosphere in the live stream was quite good.
Because of Shu Hua's control, Xiao Lu became more restrained. "So, shall we compete on the overall rankings over 10 minutes?"
Shu Hua nodded. "Okay, this is the simplest and most convenient."
Xianyin then looked at Tao Tao, "What does Tao Tao think?"
Tao Zhiming originally thought that the overall ranking was her advantage, and Xinghai Ge in the comments section kept shouting that he wanted revenge.
She then remembered their experience of being instantly ranked by painter Shu last time, and she guessed that Brother Xinghai still remembered it.
Tao Zhiming: "Okay."
Little Deer was overjoyed; she had a painting in her possession, and it was even her top supporter, Daddy, who was present.
She felt that unless Tao Tao brought in a new big spender who would attract fans on the spot, she couldn't imagine how she would lose this game.
Finally, she's going to beat Xuan Yin today.
Otherwise, Xiaolu felt she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
Xiao Lu: "Okay, since everyone agrees, let's do 2v2, 10-minute overall leaderboard."
I was in a team with Huazai, one in front and four behind, with the process in the middle.
"Alright, let's begin."
As Xiaolu finished speaking, the PK bar appeared.
They all tacitly muted their microphones.

[The Dream Walker's Livestream: Journey Through a Painted Landscape]
Shu Hua pulled out a magic wand from somewhere. She had drawn it herself, inspired by Sakura's wand, and then had it custom-made. She received it just two days ago and only remembered it today.
He tapped the camera, giving off an air of commanding authority.
"Daddy, you've already experienced the instant rankings last time, so you've satisfied your curiosity. We won't be playing this game today."
PK (player versus player) is more fun when it's back and forth.
[Daddy: Yeah, I know.]
[“Painting Daddy” gave away 10 “Eternal Realm” (199999 Sound Coins) in the live stream “Dream Walker Traveling Through the Painting Realm”]
Last time, he was in a hurry and genuinely didn't know what it was.
Later, he ended the match abruptly, realizing it wasn't a good idea.
The essence of a PK (player versus player) competition isn't solely about winning; entertainment value is also crucial.
While the ranking system can make streamers look good, it can also make the competition seem boring.
It's fine once in a while, but if it happens too often, nobody will want to watch it.
Huo Linzhou learned some knowledge after that day because Shu Hua wanted to play a PK game.
Shu Hua nodded in satisfaction as she watched Daddy give the gift in a relatively restrained manner, and then... it seemed like there wasn't much else to say.
Daddy and the housekeeper will handle it themselves.
Shu Hua glanced at the magic wand in her hand and suddenly felt that she was really clever. Since she didn't have anything else to say to garner votes, she might as well show off her results.
"I suddenly wanted the same one when I rewatched Sakura's anime."
Then I searched online and found that none of the products on the market really appealed to me.
Maybe there are just too many of them, and I feel like I might end up wearing the same thing as a kid in the neighborhood someday.
I drew one myself and then had one custom-made by a manufacturer.
Let me tell you, this rare, discontinued piece I have is quite expensive.
Because the manufacturer has a minimum order quantity; they only agree to produce the smallest quantity, which is several hundred pieces.
I really wanted it, so I used my money.
Fortunately, the effect is quite good, and the workmanship is also very good.
"I guess this money was well spent."
[Daddy: Is this what you wanted to do last time you borrowed a lawyer?]
Shu Hua waved her magic wand, looking proud, "Yes, yes."
I'm afraid some unscrupulous manufacturers might sell it secretly.
This is one of my rarest ever!
[Daddy: Well done.]
Huo Linzhou was quite pleased. Although Shu Hua sometimes seemed a bit unreliable, she was intelligent, rational, and decisive.
Huo Linzhou sometimes feels that even if he had a biological daughter, she might not be as similar to him in personality as Shu Hua.
He knew that girls were more emotional, and although he didn't think there was anything wrong with that, he still hoped that his daughter would be more rational.
[Aaaaaaah! Is this the magic wand of money power?! It's so beautiful!]
[Pink diamond bracelet and magic wand—the rich woman's equipment inventory has been updated again!]
[Please release online! Please mass-produce! Please provide a link! My wallet is ready! (Even though I might not be able to afford it, I want to try!)]
[Hilarious! Want the same thing? First, ask Boss Shu if he'll allow it with a lawyer's letter! His precautions are off the charts, respect!]
[This is a truly unique and unconventional woman! She even has a legal team to handle a custom-made magic wand – that's hardcore!]
[Preventing piracy starts with magical girls! Illustrations by Shu, Intellectual Property Protection Ambassador!]
[But Huazai really did a great job. Who understands the pain of buying an original at a high price and then seeing it being sold off cheaply by the manufacturer on Pinduoduo!]
I get it! I totally get it! I support legitimate content, but I feel like a jerk!
[Money power + legal buff! This magic wand must come with built-in anti-tank armor, right? Anyone who tries to take advantage of it will be in trouble!]
[Tap the magic wand, and ten Eternal Realms will appear! What's the spell? Is it shouting "Daddy, help!"?]
[You can't have the same magic wand, but you can have the same defensive awareness! Learned something new, next time I buy a figure, I'll hire a lawyer first!]
[Although the artist said it's out of print, I still want to make a plea~ Or, since it's out of print, the artist could draw another one for general sale.]
[Upstairs, are you perhaps a beetroot? I actually think it's quite feasible!]
[I second that proposal!]
Shu Hua looked at the comments requesting online sales and originally wanted to politely decline, but then she suddenly saw a new suggestion.
She rested her chin on her hand, and well, it did seem like it wasn't impossible.
She drew it herself because she wanted something unique.
I've been saying it's a limited edition, but I didn't expect to contradict myself so easily.
"Alright, if there are really a lot of you who want one, I'll draw one for you later."
The manufacturer that makes this for me is pretty good. If we can mass-produce it, the unit price is actually acceptable.
It should be under 100 yuan.
Later, the administrator will conduct a questionnaire or something; you can fill it out as you see fit.
Please think carefully before filling in the form, otherwise the data may differ too much later.
You have no credibility with me anymore, and I will never hold such an event again.
"Huh, why is the PK bar on the other side moving so fast all of a sudden?"
[“Daddy the Painter” gave away “Eternal Realm” (199999 Sound Coins) x1...x10...x20 in the live stream “Dream Walker Who Travels Through the Painting Realm”]
[Daddy: It's okay, don't worry about it, keep talking.]
【Ahhhhh! This is the sense of security I feel when Dad's home!!!】
[Yes, sir, let's continue discussing the magic wand. (Nods coolly)]
That's right, no one can disturb us while we're discussing big business!
Seeing Daddy's words, Shu Hua nodded obediently, "Okay, Daddy."
Okay, let me continue. Where was I?
Oh right, when you fill out the questionnaire later, you must be very calm and consider your actual situation.
It's not just about whether you have the spare money to buy this.
Rather, do you really need this?
After you buy it, will you really take it out at least three times?
I don't want anyone to be influenced by the atmosphere in the live stream and feel that they should also join in.
It's the same as giving money as a wedding gift.
Please don't say that. The number of people who want it is not the only factor I consider when deciding whether or not to produce it.
I just hope that everyone who fills out this form is doing so seriously and calmly, not on a whim.
The reason for keeping people calm is not because of the fear of getting a refund later; that small amount of money is not important.
It can really affect a person's mood, because the fact that someone goes back on their word is annoying in itself...
It's like when you've arranged to meet someone, you've prepared everything, and you're about to leave.
But the man suddenly said he had something to do and disappeared today.
I believe many people can understand that kind of frustration.
Okay, oh, one minute is up.
We're ahead! Daddy's got guts, he's reliable.
One minute has passed, and the current score is 8 million for Shuhua and Xiaolu, and 7 million for Taotao and Xianyin. The difference between the two sides is not large.
When Xiaolu saw the score, everyone was stunned. "No, we were just in the process of getting instructions for a one-minute session, right?"
With this score, I almost thought the game was over in the last 10 minutes.
Am I out of touch with the times? Is everything really this intense right from the start?
[Holy crap?! What just happened?! Am I seeing things?! Eight million a minute?!]
[Newbie here! Stumbled into a rich man's armory?! These livestream names don't seem to have any big streamers?!]
[Almost ten million views in a minute??? What are you guys doing here?! Director! Director, cut the camera! Something big is happening!]
[Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter! I just logged in and saw my health bar practically dancing! Is this PvP mode on 8x speed?]
[Little Deer: My teammates are too strong and carried the game! The joy of an easy win is here!]
Questioning the deer, understanding the deer, wanting to become the deer.
No wonder Xiao Lu laughed so wildly at the beginning, the painter Shu is really something else!
[Seriously, I just witnessed the whole thing. Tao Tao's older brother suddenly started gaining points like crazy, Tao Tao didn't even have time to react, but Shu the Painter caught up super fast, thwarting the surprise attack!]
[This start is incredibly exciting!!!]
[If that big brother had launched his surprise attack a little earlier, this would have been a game worth millions in just one minute!]
For some reason, I felt a pang of regret. I've gotten so cocky; I'm not even satisfied with 8 million points per minute anymore.
After the initial surprise, the little deer was overjoyed.
The little deer laughed happily for a while, but this time she toned it down a bit, afraid of scaring her golden thigh.
"When drawing a child, what's the process to determine?"
Shu Hua: "You decide on your revenge battle."
"Okay!" The little deer's round eyes lit up mischievously.
Without much thought, her clear voice rang out: "Okay! Then please, Xianyin and Tao Tao, do an 'elegant little swan ballet pose' together!"
It's very simple, just... um, extend your arms to the sides, support yourself on one leg, lightly touch the ground with the other foot, and then do a slow squat!
Be elegant, be precise! Just hold it for three minutes!
The little deer was probably too excited, and even demonstrated it herself, saying, "Look, it's like this, it's very simple."
I must say, watching Xiaolu demonstrate is much simpler than hearing her description.
It's also possible that she did it very easily.
Shu Hua looked at her and thought that she could do it too.
Xianyin and Taotao exchanged a glance in front of their respective cameras, both seeing a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.
Xianyin even silently said, "I'm sorry."
Tao Tao's punishment was entirely due to her own actions. Xiao Lu really wanted revenge today; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so ruthless in the past.
This movement does indeed sound "simple and elegant"—hold your arms out to maintain balance and do a squat while supporting yourself on one leg.
It tests your balance, exhausts your core and leg strength, and requires you to do it "slowly," making it a kind of gentle torture.
Xianyin thought he was physically capable, but this also required balance, which he wasn't so good at.
Clearly, this was a punishment that the deer had carefully considered.
Although Tao Tao is not as introverted and averse to exercise as Shu Hua, the physical strength of contemporary college students is just so-so.
She is also a quiet person who likes to stay in her dorm room and do crafts.
This punishment was not easy for either of them.
For the first few seconds, the two anchors were able to maintain a facade of elegance and composure.
After all, although the movement is somewhat difficult, it is undeniably elegant, and at least in terms of appearance, it looks quite good.
However, the good times did not last long.
About twenty seconds later, the two began to show subtle changes in their state.
Fine beads of sweat first appeared on Xianyin's forehead, and her arms, which she had been trying to keep straight, began to tremble slightly. The height of her lateral raise also dropped a few centimeters without her realizing it.
His squats were no longer "slow," but rather carried an uncontrollable stiffness, with each standing up accompanied by a barely perceptible rapid breath.
The knee of the supporting leg also showed visible shaking.
"String sound! Arms! Raise your arms straight! Like swan wings!" Xiao Lu's voice immediately rang out in the live chat channel, filled with the excitement of supervision and a hint of "revenge".
She stared intently at the screen displaying the sound, "Yes, yes, lift it higher! Hold it! Gracefully! Squat down slowly!"
When Xianyin was called out, a blush of embarrassment rose to her face. She gritted her teeth and tried to raise her arm, but it trembled even more.
The swaying of his supporting leg intensified, forcing him to slightly shift his foot to regain his balance, completely disrupting the fluidity of his movements.
Tao Tao's smile was already somewhat forced.
Sweat trickled down her temples, and her carefully styled bangs were now sticking to her forehead.
She felt her thigh muscles, which were supporting her leg, burning and aching as if they were on fire, and each squat felt like it weighed a ton.
My arms, outstretched to the sides, felt like they were filled with lead, and I slowly sank down. My shoulders began to shrug uncontrollably, and my posture changed from that of an elegant swan to that of a tired penguin.
"Teacher Tao, keep your supporting leg stable! Don't wobble! Squat a little deeper!"
Xiao Lu's supervisor immediately shifted her focus, her voice remaining clear and loud, carrying an undeniable urging.
"Hang in there! We're only halfway there! Remember, victory is just ahead!"
Startled by the shout, Tao Tao tried to increase the depth of her squat, but lost her balance and swayed violently, almost falling backward.
Startled, she gasped softly and hurriedly steadied herself by grabbing the table next to her.
This mistake completely ruined her composure. She was panting heavily, her cheeks were flushed, and she could no longer lift her arms, which hung limply at her sides. She could only gasp for breath to maintain her standing posture.
